MOUNTAINS, MOORS & THE MALE MENOPAUSE

A series of documentaries following an ex-office worker, sometime actor and podgy would be explorer
as he undertakes adventures to offset his impending mid-life crisis.

Part One covers a two day trek right across Dartmoor, south to north, with further episodes covering journeys
to bag the 3000ft mountains in Wales, England and Ireland, before a major assault on all the Munros
(Scottish Mountains over 3000ft, all 278 of them!) in one continuous trip.

We are looking to explore the effect that walking and wild places have on the sense of self and well being.
We are also intrigued by our need to accumulate, to bag, to tick things off lists. Why do we use this as some
sort of justification to spend extended time in beautiful places? Why can't we just enjoy these places for what
they are without having to incessantly collect?
